The paper analyses the readability of the abstracts of the articles published in different volumes of the journal, SRELS Journal of Information Management from 2011 to 2015. The paper examines the number of words; length of sentences, etc. and presents an average grade level according to readability formula. A total 301 abstracts of articles were selected during the period of 2011-2015 for this study. On the basis of these abstracts published in the journal, it is found that abstracts are made of 100 to 150 words. The results showed that the abstracts are not very easy to comprehend in terms of readability indices such as Gunning Fog index, Coleman Liau index, Flesch Kincaid Grade level, Automated Readability Index (ARI) and SMOG. From the study, it is clear that one requires 13 to 14 year education to understand the abstracts. At the end it is proposed that the abstracts should be more readable and clearer after the first reading.Keywords

ISO file creation is an important task in library automation and digitization activities. This paper discusses the creation of integrated ISO framework in Ubuntu operating system and, Remastersys, an open source software. The paper demonstrates development of six domain specific clusters in a single window based interface for functions like content creation, housekeeping operations, information retrieval system, digital media archiving, federated search system, community communication interaction. These six functions are merged into a single ISO file of size 4.7 G.B. The ISO file helps to achieve the objectives of installation and configuration of target college libraries. After creation of the file it’s required to write on DVD by using the brasero to create the Ubuntu Live DVD. This framework helps college librarians to manage their library operations and manage the users. The software tool can easily be accessed from this single window for easy management of college library functions and activities.Keywords

YouTube is a video-sharing website. It allows users to upload, view, rate, share, add to favorites, report, comment on videos, and subscribe to other users and offers a wide range of user-oriented and education-related videos. Digital resource is growing and digital libraries will include digital materials that subsist outside the physical and administrative bounds of any one digital library. Even though digital libraries include all traditional processes, these have to be revised and enhanced to accommodate the differences between digital media and traditional media. This paper describes a system that can describe and manage digital resources in libraries.Keywords

This paper attempts to introduce the process of designing a digital library with the feature of a single menu based interface, using open source digital library software DSpace and open source standard Dublin Core metadata. DSpace is widely used digital library software used in different institutes, universities and archives, etc. Dublin Core metadata is a popular open source standard, used for the creation and modification of metadata of digital content. Single menu-based interface is designed using the Ubuntu operating system and this framework helps in carrying out important functions related to digital library system’s core technical aspects, without any hassle.Keywords

Copy cataloguing and Z39.50 are well known concepts in modern library environment for executing library functions and activities. Data import is possible from different library OPACs using the Z39.50 server. Online Computer Library Centre (OCLC) and Library of Congress (LoC) are among the most comprehensive OPAC databases. This paper attempts to design a framework for comparison of Z39.50 search available in public domain and implementation of information retrieval protocol facilities in open source ILSs. The framework is mainly based on recommendations given by ILS-DI and IFLA Working Group on the area under consideration. It considers how to import the records from the other databases or OPAC through Z39.50 server or SRU/W towards next generation automation. Two open source ILSs (from the matured block of ILSs) namely NewGenLib and Koha are compared against a set of search parameters related with Z39.50 and drawn from global recommendations.Keywords

Various organisations have established institutional digital repositories to preserve important documents and provide digital library and information services. Installing software and uploading files is only one aspect of creating a digital library; it is necessary to include metadata based on a standard metadata schema. This article presents techniques that are examined based on various digital library software applications. The focus of this paper is on different search techniques, such as text search, advanced search, and quick search. For fast data entry, the Gems script was utilized in metadata design. For convenient searching of digital library materials, it completely supports metadata indexing and browsing classifiers. The process of metadata creation and the geographic search mechanisms is important in institutional repositories. These two tasks have been completed utilizing Greenstone for metadata development and DSpace's quick map for geographic search mechanisms.Keywords

This work reports on an integrated prototype framework built on the TemaTres and LAMP architecture on the Ubuntu platform. Apart from that, it investigates Google translation for easy data entry in many languages. It shows a multilingual polyhierarchical structure based on SPARQL endpoints and API services. The primary outcome of the study includes the development of a multilingual integrated framework for easy retrieval of information. A multilingual data entry framework can be developed on a specific topic using Unicode and TemaTres. There are numerous scripts and techniques available for publishing on the web, which make it easy to build a sophisticated system. The library professionals and users will benefit significantly from these integrated vocabulary services. It makes SPARQL linked data facilities by providing a visual vocabulary and thesaurus construction interface based on Web 2.0 and API services.Keywords

This study suggests a pragmatic approach to the authority control process in library cataloguing systems in order to develop a better database that facilitates speedy information retrieval from library OPACs. The authority control method also creates a unified bibliographic database with separate access points for both library users and library professionals. To review the authority control procedure for the sake of this study, we used free and open-source library management software, namely Koha. Different methods are followed by the Koha administration and its cataloguing module. The bibliographic and authority frameworks are very helpful and conducive to all the libraries and information centers. The originality of this study has been successfully demonstrated by library cataloguers’ observations on frequent strategies for carrying out the authority control processes.Keywords
